A Chinese man has deafened his girlfriend during the throes of passion by kissing her so zealously and passionately that the air pressure in her mouth dropped so dramatically as to rupture her eardrum.

According to a doctor at the hospital at which she presented, having been completely deafened in her left ear, “The kiss reduced pressure in the mouth, pulled the eardrum out and caused the breakdown of the ear.”
Ouch!
The report went on to say that “While kissing is normally very safe, doctors advise people to proceed with caution.”
Wow, it really sucked to be her.

How exactly does one proceed with caution when going in for a kiss? Do you pull out some sort of tire-pressure guage first? That makes for one mood-spoiler if its your first kiss – “Hey, ummmm, not to be too picky, but you aren’t a big air-sucker….are you??”
